Welcome to the forum! My best advice to you is to check with your neurologist to find out about donating your brain for research. I have already signed papers to donate
organs. Whatever you do be sure to put it in your will so everyone knows what you want done. Here's wishing you well and May God Bless You!

Thank you for your kind words! I want to donate my organs because I saw a young man say my Uncle life when he had to have a heart transplant. I figured why not save someone
else or help them out because when I pass away most of the organs are just destroyed and I would rather help save a life. Take care and May God Bless You!

If one is considering the monetary issues involved with after death expenses, one might want to consider becoming a body donor.

As a body donor, the entire body goes to a facility -- usually a medical school -- to be used as a cadaver in gross anatomy.
After some students get acquainted with you and human anatomy via dissection for a year or two, the facility will cremate the body and then either return the remains to the family or dispose of them as per your specifications.

Choosing to give your cerebrum and tissue to medicinal research is a standout amongst the most essential choices you can make throughout everyday life. Helping research along these lines is an extremely liberal and important blessing, and the choice must be something you are content with. It is likewise something that should be talked about with those nearest to you before you settle on any choice.
